The latest enhancement to BlueXP backup and recovery includes native support for Microsoft SQL Server backups. Previously, BlueXP offered application-consistent backups via SnapCenter integration, but the new version simplifies this process by integrating these backup capabilities directly into BlueXP backup and recovery.
Key Highlights of BlueXP Backup and Recovery Preview
- Seamless Integration: The new service allows direct backup of applications through BlueXP backup and recovery, making the entire process more user-friendly and efficient.
- Comprehensive Data Protection: BlueXP supports a full 3-2-1 data protection strategy: three copies of data, on two different media types, with one copy stored off-site. This starts with MSSQL but will eventually include support for volumes, databases, VMs, and Kubernetes—all managed from a single control plane.
- Optimized Performance and Cost Efficiency: By utilizing cloud storage options like AWS S3 and Azure Blob alongside on-premises solutions like StorageGRID, users can choose the most cost-effective and efficient storage options for their needs.
- SQL Server Backup Support: The service offers robust features for managing SQL backup policies, ensuring comprehensive 3-2-1 protection with backups to both cloud and on-premises object storage.
